It followed France beat world champ South Africa 21-19 on Friday and Wales beat New Zealand 35-28 on Saturday for a very first win over the All Blacks in 73 years.
Scotland led 12-5 at halftime after scoring 2 shots– through flanker Matt Fagerson in the ninth minute and No. 8 Jack Dempsey in the 29th– either side of one by Australia winger Harry Potter.
An extremely physical match gone by without a point scored for 46 minutes, before Scotland flyhalf Finn Russell booted a charge in the 75th to leave Australia requiring 2 ratings to win and little time to do so.
Max Jorgensen scuttled down the extreme right in the 80th minute for a transformed shot and there was one last possibility for Australia after the reboot, likewise down Jorgensen’s flank.
Scotland winger Darcy Graham existed to make the definitive deal with and relief spread around Murrayfield for a 3rd win in 5 matches by the Scots in the inaugural competition occurring over July and November. They moved above Wales into 4th location in the northern hemisphere standings.
